Lost Creek Ranger Gaiya

Outstanding in her field!

I see her granddad ... both of them, actually, but Dusty more so.

Another test photo with the new-used AF-Nikkor 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6G EF-ID VR. Even with the learning curve, sometimes things go right; this was the best of the batch by far. (Of course sunny weather and blue skies would have made it better.)

This lens, like its predecessor, requires anywhere from "some" to "a ton" of sharpening and usually is lacking in saturation. This time of year, the grass is an unreal bright green, and I live here because I like GREEN, so ... more Photoshop time required (fortunately it's fairly quick to fix because I shoot in RAW format).
